Nokia 6300 4G, all carriers, 2.4 Inch UK SIM Free Feature Phone with WhatsApp and Google Assistant (Single SIM) - Charcoal

I bought this phone to see what the new range of Nokia phones running KaiOS were like. This was the cheapest of the range, so if I didn’t like it, then it wasn’t too much of a problem. Immediately I was so surprised at how much this little phone can do! It has all the important apps; WhatsApp, YouTube, Google Maps, Facebook. And for the apps that it doesn’t have, there are cleverly converted apps in the KaiOS Store that will run on a Nokia with predictive text.This phone is absolutely great for someone who wants a cheap spare phone that can still do nearly everything that a smartphone can or if you want to buy a child a phone, but don’t want to spend hundreds of £s on a smartphone that will be broken in days. Plus, it’s a Nokia, so it’ll never break anyway!The camera is pretty bad, but at least it’s got one!

Apparently WhatsApp no longer works on this model. I couldn’t get it to work. They need to remove reference to WhatsApp from all the marketing for this phone. Also screen wonky. Won’t connect to WiFi. Have sent back for refund.

no issues what so ever - takes some getting used to but having grown up on the old nokias its not that much of an adjustment.speed is good - whatsapp text calls and maps work fine. still working on trying to sync my calendar but i have a feeling its not going to port across from my google pixlwifi drains the battery but once i turned that off it lasted a full day with lots of use - voice notes and picture sendingdont buy if youre trying to trick yourself into getting a phone that's just like your smartphone but retro looking - you wont be able to use instagram or youtube on this and it will feel very different4 stars only because you cant delete all of the bloat on it.

Battery life is poor, didn't last a day with Bluetooth use. There is no T9 predictive text. The snake game on there is very strange, kind of unplayable, maybe that's the point.Other than that it's good. I bought this phone to stop using my smartphone, not have all the addictive rubbish shoved in my face, and for that it's perfect as it has WhatsApp.

I got this Nokia 6300 4G for my Mother 77. I will have train her up. It came from Harry’s Store which came quickly, packed well. It’s in a way of a Smart phone. Please check for yourselves get Recommendations and go from there. Recommend for all.

The software in these phones is terrible. Really really, terrible.Apps will crash constantly, virtually all of them, constantly; even when they are working, they are slower and less stable than a Reliant Robin doing donuts in a muddy pond.It is lightweight, and the screen is Ok for what it is, when it isn't crashing it does the job - and its light in the hand, my main requirement; but hanging up a call will provide plenty of annoyance (just ask whoever you are speaking to, to hang up, instead).The battery life should be great, and sometimes, it is - however, certain things which should switch off, do not appear to do so every time the user tries to switch them off (for eg Wifi/Hotspot sharing has a timer you can set but it is very unreliable, or if you use location and maps, the app doesn't always seem to shut down when told to and you can find your battery going from 99% to 10% in an hour while sitting in your pocket)It is not worth the price being charged - but if it was sold for £20, I'd still only give it 3 stars with current OS. It's got 2 stars because I am genuinely being generous; it is lightweight and functions as a phone, the weight in my hand is important to me - that's about as good as it gets, but there are much better options out there, for far less - I am very disappointed overall, after some months using it.These phones do not deserve the name, Nokia - the company making them should ditch the new operating system, Kai OS, and go back to the original black and white/yellow LCD and original OS, that always functioned and never ate your battery because of poor programming.DO NOT whatever you do, attempt to use the web browser unless you absolutely 100% need to - it will only drive you to rage, despair or arson; perhaps all 3 at the same time.... don't even get me started on Snake ... thankfully disability ensures I can't play it enough to get me properly annoyed.This phone is a great example of what happens when a company is sold off with no consideration for the time and dedication that was originally put into a great product & brand.i very much doubt software updates will arrive to make this phone better, I haven't even seen a security update yet - It seems unlikely that the makers of Kia OS have created what no internet software company has ever achieved, software that is unhackable, unbreakable and completely secure. Well it's already broken, so if for whatever reason you choose to buy this, don't go putting sensitive information into it.

i have mixed feelings about this - I have bought two of these phones - one is excellent and I am happy to recommend it but the second one was non functioning and I have returned it and received a full refund.The Amazon customer service team were excellent.

That was great service I only ordered it day before and it was with me straight away
